usually I too just grab something I've already taken, but sometimes I do go take a specific picture... that is why I asked for something that would probably have to be a shot taken today

Both ... sometimes I know I have the shot somewhere on my hard drive but sometimes I also go out a take the shot on purpose ... especially for the Count to Thousand and Alphabet games. Actually, the on purpose shots usually force me to think about composition and lighting etc and to try to be creative.

Haeretik's new game, the Alphabet Word game, is going to be fun and full of "on purpose" shots ... I like to use shallow dof and to try to take shots of common things. I have a list of things, but my camera battery ran out of juice and is being charged right now

Canadian Mum looks as though no one was up for the kitchen tool shot yesterday, can we have another topic please. I must confess I usually look to see what I have that will fit for most of the games

My rice cooker and my knife! Two tools that I will be using tonight for supper.

Here is my cat laying on my backdrop. He always wants to get in my way when I am trying to set up any studio shot, yet he hates it when I take his picture

Here is a picture from the window of my hotel room in Miami, Florida, on New Year's Day...
It was rainy and grey...

Bayside in the rain

Now how about a picture from a camping trip?
